Srinagar: Coming close on the heels of arrest of a duo over allegations of stalking and intimidating a girl in Srinagar, sub-divisional police officer (SDPO) at Nehru Park Srinagar, Mansha Beigh, on Monday asked women to come forward if confronted with any untoward or unfortunate thing.
Mansha Beigh, expressing her anguish over the incident urged women folk not to hesitate and straightaway approach any of the nearest police stations or take assistance of the helpline numbers to bring the culprits to justice.
“We as a law enforcement agency owe a duty and responsibility to ensure to our people and especially to our women that they be safeguarded from any such mischievous act which may disparage their dignity,” Beigh said, adding “I reiterate on behalf of my department, our full protection to the women from such unscrupulous elements.”
“We ask the fairer gender not to hesitate from reporting any such incident, if they can’t approach us directly, they may ask any of their close kith or kin to reach us and we assure no such victim would be let down.”
Beigh said that Srinagar police have already established women’s helplines, and any girl facing any kind of untoward incident should call on those numbers.
Notably, two boys were on Sunday arrested on allegations of stalking, harassing and intimidating a girl in summer capital’s Dalgate area. (GNS)
